The term was over, they all had a 3-month vacation till university reopens. Jennie ended up in Taehyung's apartment, although they live next door but never mind. She stared at him while he was sketching something, he felt her gaze, his lips formed a smirk, liking the fact that she was looking at him like he was the most interesting thing in the world.


"Why are you looking at me like that"? He asked, not taking his eyes off the beautiful art that he was making. "You look so...oddly familiar" She said, trying hard to remember why she felt like she had seen him even before they had met. "We've been living next door for months, we see each other almost all the time, we used to be in the same English class, oh I remember I sucked in English, what else do you wanna know?" He asked. 


"No, not like that, I feel like I have seen you before" She said. "Oh forget about it, and see this" He said, showing her his sketch. "Wow, I'm gonna post this on my Insta story" She said with an amused smile as she started taking some pictures of the sketch. He watched her;he might not be her happiness yet, but just making her smile was enough for him to think that he had a chance.


"You've done this wrong for the fourth time Jisoo" Namjoon told his girlfriend who looked frustrated at the equation. "Now you can't even do one equation for me. I don't understand this, why did the teachers give us homework when it's a vacation?" She asked with a pout. "It's not like that, it'll come in finals Jisoo, you have to know how to solve this" He said, she rolled her eyes. "Alright what the hell do I have to do?" She asked. "Firstly, no cursing" He warned. "Fine, what do I have to do?" She asked sweetly with a smile as she fluttered her lashes dramatically, he giggled at her actions but taught her how to solve it.


Chaeyoung sipped on her coffee as she roamed on the streets of Melbourne, Australia. She was alone, this was where her mother and two sisters lived, her mother didn't like her, her older sister got married and was in New Zealand, the other sister, named Alice, was still here, only Alice liked Chaeyoung. Chaeyoung didn't meet her mom, coming here was an excuse since every vacation, her dad sent her here, and she couldn't really go back before a month.


She was waiting for something, a phone call to be specific. She felt depressed, she was lonely, she had no one right now, her friends were busy with their lives, she needed a distraction too instead of singing songs all the time. Why singing? Because she met someone, someone who checked on her more than anyone, showing that he cared, and that was, Min Yoongi. Yoongi was a professional rapper, music composer and a lyricist. She suddenly remembered the first time they met.


Flashback


Chaeyoung was driving in her car, not knowing where to go. She suddenly realized that while driving, she had reached the outskirts of Melbourne. She stopped the car and looked around, she could see a mansion from afar, being curious, she got out of her car and started walking towards the mansion. 


She stood in front of the door, it was open, she saw a Black Lamborghini outside, her feet dragged her inside. She gasped when she saw a boy inside, he was fallen on the couch, he had collapsed. She wanted to help, she looked around, how...right! she tried lifting him, he wasn't that heavy. She dragged him to her car and started driving. She drove to the nearest hospital and called some nurses to pick him up.


She waited till the doctors told her that he was awake, she was thankful that it wasn't something serious. She peeked at him, he had his eyes closed, she went in. "...Hi?"  She spoke, he opened his eyes and they made eye contact, both feeling such a new and strange feeling by looking into each others' eyes. "Hi?" He replied. "I'm the one who brought you here" She told him.


"So you're the stranger who saved my life?" He asked, she nodded, standing close to his bed. "Thank you, thank you so much, I thought I would never make it" He said. "It's alright, I should leave now" She said and turned away. "Wait!" He called, gripping on her wrist, she looked back. 


"Yes?" She asked. "What's your name?" He asked. "Park Roseanne Chaeyoung" She said. "You...You're Korean?" He asked, she nodded. "Me too, I'm Min Yoongi" He spoke in Korean with a satoori accent, they smiled. 


After some random conversations


"Hey! Let's exchange numbers!" She suggested, he nodded eagerly. They exchanged numbers, and the door to his hospital room opened. "Yoongles my darling!" A woman said as she ran to Yoongi and kissed his head. "I'll leave now" Chaeyoung said with a smile and left, letting Yoongi have a family time with his parents after a long time.


Flashback End


She smiled at that; it was the most unexpected thing she ever experienced. Her phone finally rang, she picked up. "Hey" He said. "No need to ask, I'm coming" She told him, sitting in her car. "Oh...okay then, see you" He said. "See you" She said and hanged up. 


She had to confess something really important, she didn't want him to see her more than a friend, but she knew, that they would end up hurting each other.
